Best Complete HomeTheater USED for $5000.00

Hi saffy here.
Ok some good points made all around (- so how do I get my cake and eat it too?
Thanks

Hi saffy again

My present system consists of:

Theta David II - no pro scan
Jadis DA-60 Integrated tube amp.
Sistrum Carravel monitor speakers
Sistrum Plateau Interconnects and Power cords
Meitner Bi-Dat DAC
Sistrum Rack

While I know a reasonable amount about 2-channel - please talk about home theater like I'm in grade 2 please.

Becuase of budget restraints - I'm willing to downgrade my 2-channel components a little in order to include Home theater - except changing my speakers.(I have a seperate budget for the screen)

Thank you everyone for the great input

From saffy

Say I got the best used projector under 2K, with a pull-down screen.

Kept my previously mentioned 2-channel system as is - but added an AV processor.

Questions:

-What speakers would I need to add / if any?(Sub-center- Rears)
-How would I connect the AV to my Jadis integrated??
-My Theta DVD does not have Proscan - is that an issue?

My room is approx: 15 x15'

Thank you

Hi
-Ok So I like the projector idea.
-Think 4.1 could make sense for me - But do I under stand that it is simply 4-channels/speakers with a feature that provide a center sound stage?
-Does the Denon mentioned take care of the graininess of the projector image and still allow me to play my CDs on a reasonable listening level?
_What happens if I get rid of my Jadis? What 4.1 receiver could i get for under 2k used - or I am I crazy to go there?

Ok - interesting 7500 system
But if I sell I sell my jadis wont my 2 channel bliss go down the drain? - If I keep the Jadis can I just get away with a pre / AV?
I suppose the DVD player change is less critical - plus added value of much better picture.
Do I need to spend used 1500 on a sub woofer- if only used for movies?
What kind of quality can I expect form a used $3000 projector?
Is $1000 really necessary for used rear speakers?
Sorry if any of these are stupid questions

Hi
In a 4-channel system - without a center speaker - can the whole familly enjoy the center audio,or is the "sweet spot" limited to 1 or 2 persons?
Thanks

Great - gentlemen - I,m really learning a lot from all of you.

Hi
Out of mostly practicality, I'm toying withe the idea of plazma.. What of this Vizio product out of California - they have a 46" for under 2-grand...

Does anyone know or recommend this brand?

Also, what features are "must haves" in Plazmas?

I'm looking at a Bose "lifestyle" system, with the idea of putting my home theater in a differnt room, and keeping my 2-channel independant.

Might seem like a cop-out, but I see some merit in practical terms as it also provides for "Musac" in differnt rooms in my house - using their digital storage sytem and multi-room capabilty - for non critical
listening.

I get to continue to build on my 2-channel, while having a relitvely low cost theater in another room - while i wait for the costs of high quality projectors or LCDs to drop.

Your comments?

Thanks

Hi Again
Couldn't in the end bring myself to buy the Bose cr.. -especially after I researched it.

So went to THX digital receiver, with HDMI Plasma / DVd, and these nice little Gallo speakers with sub.

Wow - to think I even considered the Bose
